Verses of Qazi Abu Bakr

10:02 - 2016/03/14

 
The Eminent Traditionist Ali bin Isa Irbili writes in his book Kashful Ghummah, that some of my companions related to me the following verses of Qazi Abu Bakr Abi Qari'ah (a Scholar of Ahlus Sunnah), that I quote here, "If I had not feared the enmity of the subjects and the politics of the caliph, and the swords of the enemies that would roll off the heads; I would have propagated the secrets of Ale Muhammad word by word, so as to make you independent of the narrations of Malik and Abu Hanifah (Imams of Ahlus Sunnah); I would have informed you that verily (the martyrdom of) Husain was directed on the day of Saqifah, and under what circumstances was the  honourable Fatemah buried at night; and why your two Shaikhs were not permitted (by her) to enter her room, Alas ! the daughter of Muhammad (s.a.w.s.) died in rage and sorrow".
